Anchorage Campsite

Located in Abel Tasman National Park in the Nelson/Tasman region

Walk-in or boat-in to this beachside campsite on the Tinline to Anchorage section of the Abel Tasman Coast Track. There is no drive on access.

Anchorage has great facilities, but is also quite busy. It is especially busy in summer with pick-ups of kayaks and day walkers by water taxis. It is a scheduled water taxi stop.

It is a popular campsite for school groups, especially on Monday to Thursday nights in November and mid-February to April.

The campsite gets good winter sun, has a fireplace, and sinks for hand-washing.
